Optical 3D printing techniques are low-cost mask-less patterning methods, but their application is limited by the number of printable materials. Here, the authors report a generalized optical method to print 2D or micrometre-thick 2.5D architectures based on metal chalcogenides inks, showing the realization of micro-scale thermoelectric generators.
